About this Mod
ElytraPlus
A dedicated elytra slot — wear your wings and your chestplate — plus a full suite of flight tools, all in a clean in-game menu.
Slot an elytra in its own equipment slot (next to your armor) and glide while wearing a chestplate, then customize everything from the ElytraPlus screen. Open your inventory and click the ⚙ gear next to the elytra slot — or run /elytraplus — to explore all of it. Every feature below is toggleable in-game.
The dedicated slot
- A new equipment slot just for your elytra (or any glider) — fly while wearing a chestplate
- Works in the creative inventory too
- Auto-equip a picked-up elytra into the slot
- Render your wings from the slot on your back
- Slot-only gliding option (ignore a chest-worn elytra)
- Quick-swap keybind to move an elytra in/out of the slot
- Wear % display — on the slot and/or a draggable on-screen indicator, colour-coded green→red
Flight HUD & info
- In-flight HUD: pitch (with optimal-angle colouring), speed, altitude, heading, and estimated flight time — fully draggable
- Flight-time estimate in elytra tooltips
- Low-durability alert (HUD flash + optional chime) before your wings break
Particle trails (with a live editor)
- Stream a trail behind any gliding player — Particles, a solid swept Ribbon, or Both
- Presets (End Rod, Flame, Soul Flame, Cloud, Snowflake, Heart, Rainbow) or a custom colour picker; adjustable length, density, and thickness
- A two-pane editor with a live preview of your character: place emitters by dragging them onto body parts or wing tips — trails ride your actual animated wings in flight
Flight assists
- Easy takeoff — launch into a glide from the ground (no cliff needed)
- Pitch-lock (hold) and auto-level autopilot
- Boost keybind (fire a rocket) and auto-firework when you slow down
- Safe flight — no more lethal wall-smack/kinetic damage
- Unbreakable elytra option
Fly-to autopilot & locations
- Save flight locations; each shows its estimated rockets needed
- Click a location for a detail view (name it, see distance / rockets / elytra durability) and Go
- Auto-takeoff, rocket-powered cruise to a configurable cruise height and min speed, then a gentle no-rocket float-down landing
- Flight estimator tool — enter a distance to get the optimal height, angle, speed, rockets, and elytra usage
Server / operator controls
- A built-in Server Admin menu (operators only) to allow/disable each cheaty function server-wide — easy takeoff, fly-to, item-less boost, quick-swap, safe flight, unbreakable elytra
- All assists are opt-in; the cheaty ones are server-enforceable
Command & keybinds
/elytraplusopens the settings menu (handy if you can't reach the inventory button)- Keybinds are unbound by default (set them in Options → Controls → Gameplay): Takeoff, Firework boost, Quick-swap elytra, Pitch lock (hold), Toggle auto-level
Client vs. server
- Pure client-side (work on any server): flight HUD, tooltips, particle trails, pitch-lock/auto-level, alerts, all the menus.
- Gameplay features (the slot itself, takeoff, boost, quick-swap, safe-flight, never-breaks, fly-to): need ElytraPlus installed on the server too (or single-player). On a vanilla server, only the client cosmetics work.
Requirements
- Minecraft 26.1.2 · Fabric / Forge / NeoForge
- CodxLib (required, like Fabric API) — powers the UI, networking, config, and update checks
- Fabric API on Fabric

Elytra+ server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (26.1.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Elytra+ compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge?
Elytra+ officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge for Minecraft 26.1.2, 26.1.1, 26.1. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Elytra+ – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Elytra+ consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
